Well, I can't say it is bug(s) but it is a matter of overall responsiveness 
and resources used, especially on older systems.  Composite uses (slightly) 
more CPU and memory on my amd64 box and more so on an old x86 with a PIII on 
it.

Plus when say I watch something in mplayer and I move focus to another window, 
then the mplayer window becomes transparent and the picture fades.  Since the 
cursor does not automatically follow my eyes I just switch composite off.
